I've worked at Abaddon for fifteen years, and I can tell you one thing.

This place is sick.

It almost crushed me.

It almost broke my spirit.

But this time will be different.

Welcome back.

Thank you.

I can change this place.

I'm going to show these people what I'm made of.

Now's the time.

It's now or never.

At Open Air, they taught me that by visualizing change, you summon it to you.

I see myself speaking articulately for once.

All the executives of the company are there.

They can't deny the truth of my message.

I draw the connections between our selfish behaviors and the destruction they cause.

It lights a fire that builds into an explosion of knowledge and action.

Change is coming.

I see Clean Meds becoming a beacon,

illuminating the path to a better future for the community,

the nation, the planet.

Thank you, guys.

Amy! Amy! Amy!

Amy!

Amy!

Amy?

Amy!

Amy?

Amy?

Need a minute?

No, I was just clearing my mind. Hi!

We have good news.

We have a position for you.

Right.

Okay.

Can you just give me a minute, 'cause I know I talked about it the other day.

I had a lot of thoughts when I was away, and read a lot,

even books,

about environmental renewability, you know,

sustainability, zero waste, like compost, just stuff in that vein.

Amy, we don't have time to get into a discussion about recycling.

We're trying to get you a position and back working.

But I do think if I could talk to somebody about this,

you guys, other people higher up, not to say,

but, uh, maybe I could head some kind of task force

just to get it conscious, you know what I mean? And together...

I'm gonna take you downstairs and get you started, 'kay?

You'll be working on a new computer software program called Cogentiva.

We're using it to help us chart productivity, employee performance,

in the warehouses and stores.

Weird.

I didn't even know this was here.

What is this?

There's a lot of other people here like you who we've had trouble placing.

Amy, this is Doug Daniels.

Yeah, but you can call me Dougie.

Dougie. Ha ha.

He's in charge of the Cogentiva program.

So I'm like your boss and stuff. Ha, ha, ha! Just kidding.

Well, no, I am.

What? Ahhh!

He'll set you up and get you started.

Judy, please...

Good luck.

Damn, girl, you tall as shit.

Oh, pardon me.

Um, so, how long have you worked for Abaddon?

Oh, I don't work for Abaddon.

Oh, I...

Nah, I do. I do.

Um, I went to Irvine, UC Irvine.

Oh, cool. Yeah.

So it's like, you know, I'm gonna be okay.

You know, I got an education and everything.

Right.

You know. And I've always been good with numbers and computers and shit, so...

Oh, pardon me.

Are you good with numbers?

Uh, no. No.

Hey, tall and blonde and lovely don't need to be good with numbers.

I'm just kidding. My dumb-ass nine-year-old niece could do this.

Hey, Tyler, can you help me out, get this lady orientated for me?

Tyler's my fucking rock star, huh? Yeah!

All right, so if you guys need me, I'll be kicking it in my office.

You enter it, and then you double check,

and then you enter, then you double check.

You enter...

You enter...

You enter...

You just keep doing the same thing. And you keep...

doing the same thing. And then...

Well, when the whole column's in, you should

probably call me over and I'll just, uh,

I'll just show you what to do then 'cause it's...

It's a little complicated.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

It's not that complicated, just call me over.

No, this is like... okay.

I mean, I was a buyer, right?

So this is just, like, not, this is, something's really...

This is not. Okay?

I mean, what were you doing before this?

I was an IT.

But I messed some stuff up.

It's, I, we should probably not get into that.

Okay.

But anyway, it's, you know, it's not so bad down here,

so, you can get it all done real quick,

which is nice, and then you can, you know, kinda jerk off.

I mean, goof off, or whatever and that's, you know.

Ha.

All right, well...

Great, okay.

You can just let me know what you need. I'll be over here.

I don't know, Janice, I think I'd just feel weird. Pregnant and drinking?

It's not unseemly, it's a martini.

And you can have one and it doesn't mean your baby's gonna be deformed.

Janice...

Oh, no. It's Amy.

Oh, don't answer it.

I can't just ditch her. She's here.

What do you mean she's... she's here?

No, she's, she's back. She got a new job here.

Are you serious? Does Damon know that she's here?

I don't know.

Hi, Amy.

Have you ever been to level H?

No, I've never heard of it.

Yeah? Well me neither. Guess what's down here!

Data processing! Okay?

It's like some kind of fucking high-tech warehouse with a bunch of carnival freaks.

Hey.

I'm telling you, Damon has his greasy little hands all over this.

That vengeful fuck.

Lose your mind, and then they just give you your job back? It's like...

Has he said anything to you?

No, no. Nothing at all.

Well, he wouldn't. You were my assistant, right? I mean, I basically got you the job.

I mean, of course you're gonna be loyal, right?

Yeah, totally.

What are you doing for lunch?

Oh, um, you know, I'm really slammed today.

I think I'm just gonna get a salad and eat it at my desk.

What? A salad? Krista...

Mean is good.

I need you, okay? I mean, I need advice, this is not good.

We've, we've gotta strategize, like we've gotta make a plan.

Yeah, I know, just today's not a good day. You know, we have inventory issues,

and you know, I'm coordinating, so, you know, maybe tomorrow?

Krista, Krista, it's like computers and faxes and freaks! I can't do it,

I can't live like that. Yeah, today's not a good day.

I can't like, there's no space, I've got like four inches to myself...

Why don't I call you later, okay? Um...

I'm living with my mom, I'm freaking out, okay?

Bye.

Hello?

I just hung up on her.

She sounds like she's still totally crazy. You gotta cut that cord quick.

I know, I just feel so bad for her.

Great, I'm gonna come in tomorrow with a hatchet and murder everybody,

become president of the company.

Ugh.

Painted red, naked, and just, with a hatchet.

Come back tomorrow for the staff meeting.

She had long, blonde hair.

I mean, it was a weave, but it looked really good, you know?

And, just like, big fucking, uh...

She had really beautiful breasts.

Soft, buttery skin. Good style, you know?

Like, like sexy, not hoochie.

But, she'd get these fucking nose-bleeds all the time.

You know? Like, she'd be talking and then suddenly,

like blood would just start shootin' out of her nose.

It made me want to throw up.

Oh!

Bless you.

Gesundheit.

Well, she had, she had tumors in her nose.

It was so sick.

And then they had to remove the whole thing,

and uh, then she... she died.

Mmm, calamari.

Man, she was so beautiful, you know?

Then suddenly... Oh, my God. Krista?

I noticed that I had blood literally all over my face.

You're taught not to pick your nose.

If you don't pick your nose, how are you gonna know if there's tumors in your nose?

Oh, sweet, little calamari.

Are you okay?

Were you offended, too?

He cusses all the time. I don't know what to do about it.

Oh, I don't care about that shit. No, I was upset.

My former assistant just fully lied to me.

She's like in there right now, eating lunch, and told me she couldn't have lunch,

she was gonna just "have a salad at her desk."

You know? Now she's brown-nosing Damon,

who had me transferred.

I don't know Damon.

Oh, he was trying to fuck me for two years! Groping and flirty and like, all over me.

And he's married. He's married and I'm the one?

He fucking betrays his wife and I'm the one that gets punished?

I'm the one who gets put in the fucking basement?

He should be put in the basement! He's got a fucking wife and kid at home!

They gave you an assistant?

Yeah.

Hey, could you have them box up my lunch for me?

I'm just gonna stay out here and read and just kinda...

Sure.

"Change. Now or Never."

What's that about?

Well, it's about how the world's really messed up, you know?

We can't just sit back. We have to become conscious now.

In our personal lives, just be present and loving.

'Cause life goes really fast, you know?

Is it boring?

I think it's a miracle that they took you back at all.

Thanks, Mom.

Who likes their job? I never liked my job.

What job? You were a stay-at-home mom.

You can't have fun all your life.

Anyway, it's not a good use of me, you know? I'm a people person. I like people.

There's no people in this job?

It's not that there are no people, it's that it's in the basement.

Oh, you want fun people!

But are they fun in the long run? Was Levi fun? In the long run?

You know what? I don't want to have fun anymore, okay?

I want to be fulfilled.

Amy, that's ridiculous.

I know you think I make bad decisions, okay, my whole...

Mom, could you just listen to me for once?

I'm saying you're right, okay?

It is unrealistic to have fun all your life. All right? I agree.

But I mean, when was the last time you had fun, ever?

You know, you're gardening all day long, you're watching your shows at night,

you spend all your time with the dog and no people.

I do what I want.

I'm just saying maybe you should mix it up a little bit, you know?

When we were at Open Air, we would have bonfires every night, right on the beach.

And everybody would like, sit around and talk about their lives and...

I don't like stuff like that. Mmm-mmm.

Well, I found it healing.

Could I have my pants please?

What are you messsin' around with me for?

Now, I didn't kill anybody, and I sure wouldn't kill Jenny.

Look, it's obvious I made a mistake.

Now, I have been sitting here answering questions in my shorts

for a reasonable length of time!

Now, I want my pants and I want to get out of here, all right?

Give him his pants.

Twice in two days, huh? Must be horny.

Yeah. That's what it is.

Or, I wanted to cook something healthy,

and, I have to say I did notice last night

that you have nothing in your refrigerator except beer.

That's not true. I got other stuff in there.

You do? Yeah.

Let's see, what else?

I mean, I could be light right now, yeah.

Light... mayonnaise. Nice.

Partially hydrogenated, disgusting...

mayonnaise.

Amy, you can't just waltz in here and throw away my best mayonnaise.

Anymore.

I have a system.

Sorry.

That's okay.

It's great.

It's no chili dog,

but very good. Thank you.

Well, you know what they say, and it's true.

You can't get psychologically healthy until you're physically healthy, right?

Cool.

All, like, body and mind, interwoven.

In fact, it's why I wanted to bring you by that.

It's, it's an incredible place, Levi. It's...

And they deal with everything.

Addiction, and...

It's important to me that you know,

that I mean it when I say you're full of possibility.

I just think if you got better...

I'm not sick, Amy.

So don't jump to fucking conclusions, all right?

You don't know what I do.

Well, yeah, I do.

No, you don't.

Yeah, I do.

What the fuck is this, huh?

You used to have a little shame.

This is like a fucking Mexican pharmacy!

What the fuck!

So what?

So what?

So what are you, Jim Morrison? Is that cool to you, huh?

You know, the great thing about not having you around anymore is,

I don't have to put up with this shit.

Thanks for dinner.

Fine. Where are you headed, huh?

I mean, where do you think this is going? Where the fuck are you gonna end up, huh?

In a fucking gutter, Levi?

So you got it all figured out now, Amy?

You had your little kumbaya out on Hawaii, and now you got all the answers?

'Cause I remember you wasted!

Bawling your eyes out, begging to blow me!

I think you're hanging on by a very thin thread with like

one finger on the edge of the cliff.

No.

We'll see.

We will see.

Yeah, we will see. I give it a couple months, tops.

And then you're gonna need something to take the edge off,

whether it's a pill, or a drink, or a snort, or a fuck, whatever.

Lucky for you, though, my door's always open. And I don't judge.

Oh! Good morning!

Good morning.

Gosh, it's amazing what you can get done if you wake up early, huh?

Mmm-hmm.

Okay. See you soon.

Hey, Judy, listen, I want you to take a look at these.

Um, I think after reading through this stuff, you're gonna share my feeling

that there is a real need for like, a task

force, or like an internal watchdog-type person.

You know? To like address some of the things that are going on right here.

And there might be a better use of me than down in that basement crunching numbers.

Anyway, I know how busy you are, just get back to me whenever.

Oh, and you know what, I was thinking...

Krista? Hey, hi, Janice!

Oh, my gosh, I've been doing research online,

and I think I've got a little job for myself.

So, are you good?

Yeah, good. Welcome back. Long time, no see.

Is this your office?

Wait a minute. Okay...

They gave you my office?

Okay, I'm gonna call you later.

I know, it's weird, I...

It's just, you know, you left, and then they promoted me...

and it was open, so...

Krista, I can't believe that they gave you my office and you didn't tell me.

I don't know, I just... I didn't want to upset you, Amy.

Are you upset?

I'm a little thrown.

I mean, I just don't feel like you're being totally straight with me.

Um, like yesterday, you know, when you blew me off for lunch.

What do you mean? I had to work.

Krista, just be honest with me.

You know, I know it's complicated, I mean, you work with Damon.

I mean, basically, you work for Damon. And everybody at H&B has some problem with me.

No, I, I really don't think that everybody in H&B has a problem with you, Amy.

Cut the shit, Krista!

Janice fucking hates my guts.

You know, I know it's political.

I understand. I get it.

And I know you were my assistant,

but I had your back,

and I thought you had my back.

And I considered us friends.

So, are we friends?

Of course!

We're friends, yes! There's nothing wrong!

Everything's fine, I just, I'm really busy. That's all.

Tomorrow! We'll go to lunch tomorrow.

Yeah, okay. Or whenever.

It's pretty.

Thank you.

Hello?

Amy? This is Judy Harvey.

Oh, hey, Judy.

Do you realize how grossly inappropriate it is for you to give this stuff to me?

Well, but, um, Judy, I just thought that...

I'm not interested.

What I'm going to do is,

I'm going to throw this folder in the trash,

and I'm going to pretend like this never happened.

Judy, don't you care about this stuff?

We can make a difference.

Do you want to do something good? Pick up trash along the side of the freeway.

But when you're here, you need to work.

Not make little collages, stirring up shit that could get us both fired. All right?

Amy?

Yeah. Okay.

Okay?

You done with your book?

Yeah.

Could I read it?

Yeah.

This girl, she put extra virgin coconut oil all over.

So I'm like,

"Girl, you keep putting that coconut cream on yo ass, I'm gonna eat it.

"I can't be responsible, you know what I'm sayin'?"

Change will come.

Maybe not today,

maybe not tomorrow.

But it will come.

You have to believe.

I close my eyes,

and see a better world.

People there are fearless and connected.

They are my friends.

I'm there. I'm free.

And this earth itself is healed,

and where nothing suffers.
